Thailand has confirmed another bird flu case, the second this week, in a rural district of Uthai Thani, 200 km north of Bangkok, a senior agriculture official said on Thursday.
"We have killed all the chickens in suspected areas after lab tests confirmed that a small flock of native chickens raised by a farming family died of H5N1," an official at the Agriculture Ministry’s department of livestock told Reuters.
It was the fourth case of the deadly virus found in Thailand in 10 months.
